Julia,
I just read your lastest post about Robin Williams and your depression. I found you through The Pollination Project and had known of your incredible heart work for Luna. I am from San Francisco, raised in Monterey. I gave up meat 26 years ago and am vegan 11 years, all for the animals. I created a website containing testimonials for 140 diseases/conditions all reversed with a whole food, plant-based diet, including stage iv cancer and depression :) : www.healedlives.com . Animal stories from vegan dogs and cats, too! I truly feel your pain for the world, especially the animals. Often, I do not want to be here. But, the animals and humans need enlightened beings such as ourselves to help guide us all along. We all are at different levels of enlightenment, channels of life force, god within.

Robin Williams ... here is my facebook post:
My own father took his life due to depression and alcoholism. I was 8. My brothers were 7 and 4. He did it on my mother's birthday. It was the only year we kids had an official birthday party for her. Dad's death was a catalyst for me to literally love the world with incredible results. There are no coincidences. We create our lives and can willfully alter our direction in a moment. That's just how powerful each of us humans are, each with a unique internal knowing, our personal guidance system ... God within. Dad was and is a beautiful soul. Those who cause harm to another will suffer the greatest consequences including humans involved with entities like Fox News.

Your life and your love have had and will continue to have a big impact on life. I know exactly what is going on with animals at human hands across the board. We must know and work to determine the causes, alter them and change the effects to create abundance. My whole life I have protested everything wrong with the world. I now know I am part of it all because we are all connected. We must and are creating solutions to move livelihoods away from pain.

Addiction? I gave up alcohol 7 months ago and never felt clearer. I didn't drink a lot, but enough to depress me. The animals cannot drink to alleviate their pain. They endure it all up close and personal. I will spend the rest of my life focusing my energy on creating peace for all creatures. If our world ends tomorrow, as may very well be the case, so be it. As long as the suffering ends, I am at peace. What we do moment to moment is vital now. I am here 24/7. Please reach out to me if you like 347-400-0006. I have isolated too long and borne these truths alone. No more. With love, Trish Knudsen
